Salary is something that most people don’t prefer to reveal. At the same time, everyone does want to know how much their favourite Hollywood star is earning or who is the highest-paid Hollywood actor and actress. However, Hollywood actors’ salaries are more transparent to fans than the actresses. One of the reasons behind this might be the difference of digits in the paycheck. Recently, Variety revealed the highest paid stars list of 2022. And surprisingly, not a single actress was in the top 10 list! Check Out the highest-paid Hollywood actress in 2022.
Margot Robbie
Margot Robbie previously brings DC comic character, Harley Quinn, into the real world. Now, the actress is bringing the plastic character and everyone’s favourite, Barbie, to the real world. Robbie already enjoyed being on the highest paid list, but this time, Margot Robbie is at the top spot. Margot Robbie is reportedly paid $12.5 million for her role in the upcoming Barbie movie.
